Ableton Forum

I have listened/Checked out alot of Synths in my time..And have been looking for a Synth that does the best electro house Bass..Till now i used the Minimoog VSTi..But while on Holiday/Vacation here in Washington DC i checked out a music store and tested a Studio Electronics Omega8 (8Voices) oh my fucking God !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is the thing i have been looking for..I will be getting one very soon..
Does anyone know which artists use it ???

Just about every single pop and hiphop studio/producer on earth owns one. Studio electronics is a good company thats been around forever. You dont need to blow $$$ on an Omega 8 (Now Called C.O.D.E) if thats the sound your looking for. A studio electronics maxed out ATCXi Quad (same company) sounds just as rough and you'd save $1,200.

I checked out the ATCXi on that link and saw it only has one voice which isnt enough..Also when i was in the shop i checked out the SE-1X which didnt even touch the Omega8 in sound..I think i will still go for the Omega8

The Studio Electronics SE-1 is a classic though

I love that fat and gritty electro house sound! Are there some more affordable expanders that compete with the big beasts? Never heard one but for example the Evolver or I dunno anything else. Is there a VST comparison or does it have to be true analog?

The Minimoog VSTi or predator vsti get close

Dont get me wrong that thing is a monster but not as Phatt,Monophonic and only 1 Voice..

whats wrong with a real moog?

I really have to download Predator... I love Albino... and keep thinking of picking up Blue... I suppose I should save the money and at least check out the demo for predator!

Its been done to death?

Don't know about Moog being done to death... but there certainly are far too many vsti remakes of it...

I guess one of my p[roblems with analog synths like the code - once you go past a certain price, then multi-voice modulars with expensive digital poly control modules start to become attractive - and give you a hell of alot more room for sound shaping to your own taste.

There is just nothing like the freedom of sound designing on a modular.
